Intelligent Pathways CEO signs up for the 2015 Vinnies Sleepout

15 May 2015

On the 18th of June 2015 Intelligent Pathways CEO, Peter Robertson, will call the Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane home for one night when he takes part in the Vinnies CEO Sleepout.

Peter has participated in the event for the last four years and finds the experience both humbling and rewarding. The key thing Peter has taken away from being involved with the event is that “homelessness is a much broader issue than the stereotypical bum on the street - unfortunate circumstances or bad decisions could result in any one of us being homeless.”

The latest figures released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics show that 105,237 people in Australia are experiencing homelessness, with 60% of those under the age of 35. Perhaps surprising to many people is that 44% of these are women, 13% are under the age of 12.
